PittsThis is not a book that you will read cover to cover; it is a "dictionary" of graphics and the elements to those graphics. It will not teach you how to use them or the appropriate use of them (for that refers to Tufte). I agree with the other comments that the alphabetical arrangement is not useful - just as a dictionary is not useful if you dont know a word. A Thesaurus style would have been more useful; giving alternatives or evolutions of graphics. However some of the entries once found are extremely useful and e;g; Data Distribution graphs; but content is repeated under different entries Ie Combination decision and flow chart is under decision diagram and flow chart (and probably others) ; making it hard to find the source referenceIts all black and white; and omits some of the more recent developments (no Heat Maps; Tree Maps; Sparklines).However its a serious professional reference that I have personally found usefulCould use an update46 of 48 people found the following review helpful. Consultants best friendBy Mike TarraniAs a consultant in the computer industry I often wonder if I am a technical specialist or a technical writer because of the high volume of writing I do. While I have honed my writing skills through both experience and training in Information Mapping; I used to be at a loss about how to best portray technical data in my documents.Information Graphics: A Comprehensive Illustrated Reference changed that. With this handy reference; which is never far from my keyboard; I have a 450-page catalog of ideas and guidance. What is remarkable is that in the 450 pages are 4;000 illustrations (nearly 10 per page). This book has allowed me to measurably improve the quality of my proposals and deliverables by picking the best possible way to convey information.Dont let the fact that I am in the computer consulting industry deter you from buying this book - if you are in business; graphic arts; advertising and marketing or just about any other profession that uses data this book will be worth its weight in gold.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. but the information it contains is complete and highly useful.By PeteYou can question the structure or design of this book; but the information it contains is complete and highly useful.
